A presidential candidate calls for bankrupting entire industry? Let’s ignore it in plain sight.
A presidential candidate call for higher energy prices for all Americans, especially the poor? Capital idea, we agree! But on the whole, let’s ignore it in plain sight.
A presidential candidate has spent years marinating in a radical chic background? Let’s ignore it in plain sight.
The Middle East is in tatters as a result of an administration asleep at the wheel? Let’s ignore it in plain sight.
A border agent killed and guns in the hands of Mexican criminals? Let’s ignore it in plain sight.
An incendiary racially-charged speech involving the man who is now the president of the United States emerges that 99 percent of the general public hasn’t seen? Old news. Let’s ignore it in plain sight.
